Abstract: when signals are simultaneously received from k transmission-side apparatuses by a receiving antenna, and repetition is performed by the k transmission-side apparatuses, an information processing apparatus is configured to: in order to obtain a transmitted reference signal x(k,n) transmitted from a transmission-side apparatus k (k=1, . . . , k) by the n-th reference signal transmission in the repetition, acquire a phase rotation amount �(g,n) given to a transmitted reference signal x(k) and assigned to a group g to which the transmission-side apparatus k belongs and transmit the phase rotation amount �(g,n) to the transmission-side apparatus k. the phase rotation amount �(g,n) is acquired so that received reference signals from transmission-side apparatuses not belonging to the group g are cancelled when a phase rotation amount opposite to the phase rotation amount �(g,n) is given to a received reference signal r(n), and the first to n-th received reference signals in the repetition are added.
